@moribito2@jeremycorbyn@M_Star_Online There has been not demiliterisation and irans nuclear more so then the ballistic missile program has been the source of all its woes. The only thing it might protect or reinforce is the regime not the people or the state.
I love that we’re the new Rome. Peace with Persia in the afternoon and a gladiator fight in the evening, all on the Emperor’s birthday. Another 1,000 years.
@wereontheditch Polls actually find Irish people are increasingly split on the issue. Though if the pro western side start to emerge we can just say it is because they are "manufacturing concent" i.e convincing people.
🚨Caolan confirms he has obtained a sample of Alumina from Aughinish which he plans to get forensically tested against Russian battlefield debris which may prove the link between Russian weapons and Aughinish Alumina. #Alumina21
@itsjohncrotty@dohville@OTregub By the same logical Ireland is not supplying or trading with Israel it is companies in ireland that are doing so. Yet a cohort here are a lot more agitated by said trade in dates then we are raw materials for weapons of war and genocide.
You're a spook says journalist (whose platform was co-founded by a documented foreign agent and russian state propagandist who was previously arrested and detained by security services for being a russian "spook") to another journalist investigating russian MIC assets.
@blueswannabe@CaolanReports Bucha, Irpin, Izium, etc., are examples of Russian forces massacring Ukrainian civilians and dumping their bodies in mass graves, as well as engaging in large-scale sexual violence. These are just some of the cases exposed in only the liberated territory.
I’ve been wondering why local news here in Limerick hasn’t been reporting the truth about the russian refinery and just noticed the biggest paper here took 5M € government funding from a minister who has defended the plant. Absolutely disgraceful. You cannot call yourself a journalist if you take government money. Explains a lot
For weeks, Irish politicians have dodged questions about the refinery in Ireland supplying Russia’s war machine.
So I tracked down government minister Niall Collins at a farming show.
He refuses to back sanctions & his stance was worse than I expected.
Avoidance.
What is wrong with Ireland?
PM lies about massive alumina export to Russia, used to make Shahed drones against Ukraine,
Wont discuss EU common defence,
Let’s in huge numbers of Russian with a 90% visa approval rate, i.e. no real vetting.
Every day, ships leave this russian owned factory in Ireland straight for St Petersburg carrying thousands of tonnes of raw alumina for the war machine.
There’s corruption everywhere. Locals tell me politicians are bought by oligarchs.
Ireland is no longer militarily neutral.
Swedish Defense Minister @PlJonson has warned against inserting a "European preference" into EU defense procurement rules.
"My responsibility, first and foremost, is to get weapons in the hands of the Swedish warfighters," he said.
